Why do dems believe it is so important for the government to fund killing babies?
Because abortion is THE ISSUE of the radical feminists and their wealthy secular supporters.
It's because the Dems are all about absolute power.
They try to sell women on this idea that they can be as irresponsible as they want, and if they get pregnant, it's completely legal to get rid of that inconvenient baby. The baby doesn't contribute anything to society; it's a drain on resources; therefore, from a utilitarian standpoint, there is nothing wrong with killing it.
By accepting the premise that the only value of people is the amount of labor they can provide to "society," these "pro-choice" women tacitly accept the premise that they, too, can be just as easily terminated when they make the transition from being producers to being burdens on society.
While the Democrats will make a lot of noise about "freedom" and "rights" in their support for abortion, they truly support neither.
